Not Super. Woman

Bec and Zoe recap on the interview the week prior, the impact it’s had on them as individuals, and how they both drew different ideas from their guest and implement changes in the endeavour to change it up, or give it a go.

Then there is always a ramble involved (usually by Bec) where they chat about what’s been happening and how they have or haven’t managed their current juggle, in their attempt to not be super, but a woman.

What has previously been a generally ignored stage in a woman’s life is now coming more and more to the forefront - peri-menopause and menopause, thanks to the committed work of incredible Doctors like Dr. Fatima Khan AKA The Menopause Specialist.

Dr. Khan not only has a profound understanding of the science, and medical cause and effect of menopause, but is also a woman that strongly advocates for this stage of a woman’s life to be more widely understood by society and our community because the ripple effects go well beyond the symptoms.

Statistics such as 1 in 10 women end up leaving their roles in the workforce because their symptoms from menopause become unmanageable, in-turn meaning the representation of women in senior management roles reduce, and the gap between men and women in leadership roles broadens.

There are so many more examples of these ripples effects, and when 50% of the world population will experience this which equates to 1 Billion women in 2025, it’s infuriating that it’s not more acknowledged.

But that being said, whilst Dr. Khan knows all the treatment options and supports women medically, it’s her understanding of what’s required in the holistic aspect that reminds us yet again, it’s taking the time to hit pause - review how you are feeling but also how you are living, for you and in-turn for your health.

Michael Wipfli, affectionately known as ‘Wippa’, is one of Australia’s favourite funny guys. Host of the incredibly popular Nova Breakfast radio show, TV Personality and a loved all round family man.  But whilst Wippa makes nearly every person he meets laugh with his quick wit and self-deprecating humour, and he has mastered the ability to create connection and bring joy, it doesn’t always mean that what is happening within, is the same as the light-heartedness that he projects. 

Michael has been brave enough to previously share his vulnerabilities publicly, including his uncomfortable early overnight development as a kid going through puberty and his mental health challenges as an adult. Now a husband and a father whose children will soon be entering into the next phase of their childhood, Michael is faced with supporting them through not only the highs and lows of adolescence that he once experienced, alongside the possibility that they may meet their own mental health challenges, but this time he knows it’s with the added pressure of social media. 

Spearheading and co-founding the issue at its core with 36 Months, a nation-wide petition to change policy and delay the age that kids can gain access to social media platforms by 36 months from 13 to 16 years old.  Michael and his co-founder Rob Galluzzo are determined to give kids the chance to manage those terrific, yet at times, terrifying years of puberty, back to families without the layered pressure of social media until their better equipped with the maturity that comes with age, to cope with the highs and lows that social media brings.

Anna Kloots is a woman whose life story to date is nothing short of a US Box office hit movie. Filled with magic, romance, travel, heart ache and ultimately the empowering story of a woman who had to find her identity again and rebuild her sense of self... although Anna decided to do that, on her own in Paris.

At the tender age of 19, Anna went from her small hometown in Ohio to New York. Fell in love with a magician (who coincidentally was from the same town) and before she had the chance to grow into her own magic, she committed everything to the magician: putting aside her own dreams to become his full-time assistant and wife. As each year passed Anna followed her husband’s career and ambitions, whilst trying to find outlets for her own, but quickly began to realize that she needed more from life and her marriage. As she fought to become more than just a plus one in her husband’s life, Anna’s husband left, and she was confronted with the devastation that she had completely lost sight of herself.

Anna was forced to pick up the pieces of her life and review who she wanted to be going forward and what was it that made her happy. Writing and adventure led Anna to decide to start again in her favourite city – Paris, where she proceeded to not only write a New York Times Best Seller “Live Your Life,” and her memoir about rebuilding her life, “My Own Magic,” but also managed to create a life true to her dreams and her values. So, we asked what helped a woman with a broken heart mend her heartache? How do you pick yourself up to move to another continent alone? And what is living life in Paris truly like?

In today’s day and age it feels like for women there is a fork in the road.

You can either throw yourself in the career lane, or as time ticks and the pressure of starting a family grows you can wonder down the relationship and in-turn fertility road, which is always unknown and never a certain outcome.

If you sit in the middle and cross between the two paths, it can often feel like you are never executing either path, well enough. Taryn Williams is now an established and renowned CEO and successful entrepreneur of multiple companies, who has firmly established her place on the career path through sheer grit and determination and gone from strength to strength.

Taryn’s journey started out by being scouted for modelling at the age of 15, to then opening her own modelling agency WINK models at the age of 21 and turning it into an industry juggernaut that is known for inclusivity, diversity and equality for their models. Her focus then moved to founding companies such as the right.fit connecting brands directly to creators, and The Influencers Agency, selling the latter two companies in 2023, only to throw her energy into her next venture #Gifted - a business model that tackles the world of branded gifting and influencers content.

Taryn’s conquests in business have provided her security, admiration of her peers and career longevity. But the question begs about the path not taken in her personal journey. In previous interviews Taryn has been an open book, questioning why her worth is attached to her career success, what the journey has been like in freezing her eggs and her awareness and desire for more balance and commitment to being present in her personal life.

Bianca Spender is an esteemed Australian Fashion Designer, that has cemented herself and her namesake brand as a Fashion Icon for the last 16 years in the industry. Branching away from her late mother, Carla Zampatti, also a Fashion designer and established brand that is considered fashion royalty, to develop her own connection with design and share her deep connection with colour and creativity - Bianca uses her sound knowledge base to enrich and empower the women that don her designs, in a considered, socially conscious and liberating way.

Having two renowned and established parents, Carla Zampatti an Australian darling of Fashion and her late father, John Spender, a well respected Politician, Barrister and Diplomat, is a high bar for any child to reach for. Spending her childhood weekends and holidays in her mothers design studio helping count buttons or doing stocktake, to the freedom she experienced alongside her siblings in the hours after school when her parents were hard at work, might of been an opportunity to squander the early independence. But clearly through the example led, it afforded them growth and assisted them in calving out their own way.

Bianca’s curiosity to push past her family foundations and define her own way within the fashion world is a beautiful ode to honouring the teachings of our parents alongside the growth that comes with developing a strong sense of self. So we ask how do you weave a legacy left by your parents in with your own identity? And what does fashion mean to Bianca now knowing that the women who planted the seed of passion for her as a child, and that she walked alongside in the fashion world, has now gone?
